Her parents said it was usual for the teenager to sleep in late at the weekend, but when they went to check on her she was gone.

Heaven Ray Cox, 15, was last seen in her home on November 25 and was reported missing on November 26

They now fear she may have been abducted or ran away by a man she met on social media, the Beaumont Enterprise reports.

Police were notified of her disappearance on November 26 and are working to assess the potential connection with the unidentified predator.

Heaven's mother, Tammy, has posted on Facebook about her daughter's disappearance.

She wrote: 'The man she has been talking to is a predator, who has apparently been manipulating her for some time, and in her current state of mind, she believes that he is her friend.

'She left a goodbye note to me and her Dad, and said that she wouldn't have a phone, so I'm sure he has taken it from her, as it isn't here, and I have torn her room apart. She is off her meds and is in a manic phase of bipolar disorder.

Her family worries she might be with a 'much older' predator from California

'I am asking everyone to share this to their wall, and particularly those who live in California and every state between there and Texas.

'This man told her that he would be in San Antonio for Thanksgiving and that he would pick her up.'

San Antonio is about 4.5 hours by car from Mauriceville.

Police say that a note indicates Heaven might have been heading to California.

Tammy also wrote earlier tonight that Heaven's passport was missing.

Previously, Tammy wrote that Heaven suffers from bipolar disorder and might be off her medication.
